T is for ...

Timinogos Cave!

This wondrous cave is located in Utah, 92 American Fork--number, (801) 756-5238 if you're ever interested in a cave
tour. Sorry, no spelunking allowed! But satisfy your adventurous
tooth with
the 1.5 mile hike up
the steep 1000 feet of elevation to its entrance!

I found
this awesome blogger's full safari report on Timpinogos cave. She braved the steeps, lost a runaway water bottle all while with
two kids and a baby pack--whew! (I've done
that climb with a baby pack and some kiddles
too, it's scary stuff.) I wonder if
they'll ever put up a railing or if anyone has ever fallen off
to their deaths? *shiver*

Okay, I just did some digging and
there have been quite a few accidents. I would close
this place down nd build a safety rail, putting up a warning before the hike doesn't do it for me--it's just not worth a person's life!

Now that looks like an awesome hike! I really enjoy caves and hiking. I did some spelunking which was terrifying (I'm claustrophobic) and if you don't like going up steep, narrow mountains without railing, don't ever drive to the top of Pike's Peak! 14,000 feet straight down and not a guard rail in sight!

That does look scary. I'm afraid I have done nothing dangerous... I feel quite pathetic! I can't even walk within 20ft of a cliff edge, it makes my knees go weak! Even watching other people go near the edge freaks me out, especially my husband and children! I salute you for having done it!
